  • Disturbing Ads: Snow White in Bed with the Dwarves?!

    An Australian beer ad has taken some creative license on a classic fairy tale by depicting a sexed-up--and inebriated--Snow White in the sack with all seven dwarves. She's smoking a (post-coital? ew) cigarette while the dwarves display their respective emotions. The company calls it "Ho White and the Seven Dwarves" and renames Sleepy, Happy and Doc to Filthy, Smarmy and Randy.

    What does this have to do with liquor? The tagline for the beer is "anything but sweet," and I guess this fits the bill. But still...did anyone really want this image seared into their brains? What if kids see it?

    Although Disney doesn't own exclusive rights to the original fairy tale, of course, the beer company has reportedly been reprimanded from Disney for the ad.

    What do you think of this ad? Is it funny or inappropriate?
